Secret Love Nest

Doomed Squirrel pt3

So I followed JiJi's advice.

I should have known better.

After dinner and the one on one meeting with Baba, Qing and I went home to the condo. We did our nightly routine and sleep.

The next day...Qing decided it's a good idea to turn off our phones so we can stay in bed the whole morning. Then by midday, I went to my scheduled interview and pictorial for a magazine. I came home in time for dinner. After washing the dishes and making sure my kitchen is spotlessly clean, I joined Qing in the living room and stare at my phone.

Qing: (reading the book he cannot seem to finish reading because of his busy schedule) Make the call. Don't overthink it.

Me: (pressured) Fine!

I made the call. Wang Zhu gege answered after three rings.

Wang Zhu: Yes, Dayu...

Me: I'm sorry. Bye...

I ended the call.

Qing gave me a stunned look.

Qing: What the hell was that?

Me: Me...apologizing.

Qing: Apology, my ass! That was...I don't know what that was but that was not an apology, Dayu!

Me: (moaning as if in pain) I feel embarass. Do I really have to explain why I am apologizing to him?

Qing: Yes. So Wang Zhu gege will not wonder why you are suddenly apologizing to him. If someone just apologize to you without giving any reason, will you not wonder why that person is suddely apologizing to you?

Me: (being stubborn and bratty) Yes. I will not wonder at all. I will just be glad that I get an apology.

Qing: (staring at me) Are you really going to be like this?

Me: What? (Jutting my nose in the air) What?

Qing: (sighing and closing his book) For the first time, I am very disappointed in you, Dayu.

I was taken aback. Qing...does look disappointed. He kept staring at me until his phone rang. Wang Zhu gege's name pop in the screen.

Qing: (taking the call) Ge, yes. I know you are confuse. Dayu is...

Qing sighed and look at me while he listens to what Wang Zhu gege is saying from the other line.

Qing: Yes. Of course you can come here. Dayu is...he is being difficult again.

I feel angry suddenly. First he is disappointed at me. Now he is calling me difficult.

I hate Wang Qing.

I stood up from the sofa and snatch a throw pillow and throw it at him. (that's it's purpose, right? To be thrown when you are pissed off. No? Okay then...)

Me: I hate you!

I shouted at him then ran into our room.

Qing: (coming after me) Dayu!

I dive into our bed and put my head under my pillow. Wang Qing charge into our bed and snatch the pillow away from my head then yank me hard to made me sit down and look at him.

Qing: (angry this time) What is going on with you? Why are you acting like this?!

Me: Because of you! Instead of supporting me, you keep pressuring me to say sorry! Do you think it's easy! It's embarassing! Why don't you explain it to Wang Zhu gege? See if you like it! Then watch him look at you like you are really crazy. You know! Wang Zhu gege thinks I am trouble!
